Something we have never heard him come out and say about his previous organization.

"3 different head coaches, 7 different offensive coordinators, 17 different starting receivers in 7 seasons."

Talks in detail about the huge differences between the culture in San Fran and (implies) how it is in Kansas City.

--
A defining moment for his and Andy's career (which no one realized at the time), is the SNF game where they play host to the Eagles and Andy Reid witnesses the home crowd turn on Alex and cheers for the backup.

I completely disagree, if it came to light that we could have acquired Mahomes at the price we paid and didn't because our 33yo QB probably still had a few years left, I'd be pissed. Particularly if it came to light in the week after we lost another year of Eric Berry.

IF YOU truly are all in on this shit about elite franchise QBs being the only thing that matters anymore in the NFL, you don't half-ass it and grab whomever happens to be available whenever the need arises then cross your fingers and pray. You IDENTIFY generational talent and ACQUIRE him when the opportunity rises.

I'm not 'happy we finally drafted a QB.' I'm happy we drafted Mahomes.

But you know that, you just continue to be a ****.

Well, you are high then. I'm wildly happy we drafted Mahomes, but if the Packers had made the same trade we did to get Mahomes, everyone would be saying "what the ****?"

33 isn't all that old for a QB. If he was consistently playing like he did last Thursday, we probably would not have traded up in the first round to draft a QB.

Aaron Rodgers is 33 and you don't see the Packers drafting a replacement yet. I think Mahomes is worth the pick, and picks we gave up to get him, but probably not this year if our qb was Aaron Rodgers. It has nothing to do with the value of Mahomes, but the need on the team.

But you know that. You're just being a prick.

I was saying this spring that Smith is going to be better heading into his mid-30's. A huge percentage of long time vets have played their best ball between 30-36.

It's comforting to know the offense has been so much more productive here in KC with Smith and the relative lack of dysfunction. To approach scoring 20 points a game last year with Smith as our QB was indeed a blessing.

If plays at 80% of Thursday they are going to destroy everyone on the way to the SB.

I just want him to have those games at the right time.

Can't say it will always be the right time, but I think 80% of is doable now.

Dude is living good.

So much of this. Barring some horrible injury, there can be no feeling bad for this 100 million dollar man at this point.

Alex was 20 years old when drafted and he started yr 1.. has multiple concussions, and two surgeries to his throwing shoulder. Rodgers sat for 3? or 4 years.. has he endured any major injuries that compare?
